How does this course work?

This course is built on a question-and-answer format. Anyone can ask a question, and anyone can answer any question. It is for those interested in wood finishing who have the motivation and, therefore, perseverance to go forward and, at the same time, enjoy researching and solving problems. Answering the questions itself is up to you. Ask a question and then write an answer to it in the literature on YouTube, via chatGPT, or through your research (experiment, disassembly). You can also answer other people's questions as part of the exercise. We would greatly appreciate it if you would attach free images and videos and upload them to our Wikimedia Commons repository. This will help others understand the problem better.
